The app that allows you to see is coming

airpoly app

It's called Aipoly and it's an app that allows blind or partially sighted people to "see" what's around them. Aipoly is an artificial intelligence app that allows you to explore the world in a different way, through a technology that communicates what you are framing with a guiding voice, obviously thanks to the use of the smartphone camera. The app currently allows you to identify around 1.000 different objects and 900 colors in real time. Aipoly was presented for the first… Read more

Energy from nuclear fusion less distant with the laser as hot as the sun

lasersun

A team of scientists from Imperial College London has probably made the possibility of obtaining unlimited energy from nuclear fusion less distant thanks to a theoretical model of a laser that can develop 10 million degrees Celsius (probably a higher temperature than what is found to the center of the Sun) in 20 quadrillionths of a second: practically instantaneously. The development represents a step forward towards the dream of obtaining energy from thermonuclear fusion: a clean, sustainable and unlimited source… Read more

The future world will have stateless nations

new world

It is a truly complicated period on a geopolitical level: an epochal transition towards the future world that almost imposes the dynamics of social networks even on political entities. What is happening in Syria (and in other neighboring nations) has every appearance of being a transition from a world of "nation states" to a world of "stateless nations". It is not the only indication of a change: other unknown factors that determine citizenship or belonging to a territory are changing. … Read more

All about the super job of the future

future work

I often jokingly hear friends say that to get (or keep) a job today you need superpowers (the most sexist and boorish ones in the case of pretty colleagues argue the need for other skills). The future is made up of many things, and an important theme is precisely that of human enhancement, the improvement of physical and mental performance that can arise from the use of new technologies or medical procedures: in this article I want to offer you some ideas to reflect on. … Read more

5 skills to survive the future

5ability

What skills need to be developed? Surviving is a relative concept: you can do without a lot, but beyond easy philosophy, an immersive world like ours characterized by an enormous amount of information is a jungle that is difficult to cross without having strong shoulders. Here are 5 skills to focus on for society in the coming years: 1 – Knowing how to manage communications According to Nielsen, in the first quarter of 2010 European teenagers sent and received… Read more

Bang & Olufsen hits Encore

5EAR IMPLANT

(sponsored article) Multipurpose environments and intelligent spaces await us in the near future to pamper us and meet the needs of a presumably more stressed population: the 'show down' will travel in the opposite direction to disorder: it seems classic but one can expect rooms increasingly essential, elegant, capable of calming the soul and transmitting serenity and harmony. Speaking of harmony: what will happen to music? A factor that has been important to humans for thousands of years will not be overlooked tomorrow either: ... Read more

Preserving the brain to live again in digital form: plastination.

Death is the end of everything. Our brain, which has functioned well for many decades, at the moment of our departure from the world, in the space of just twenty minutes undergoes anoxia and neurons and synapses fall apart. No machine, after such damage, will be able to revive us; it will be able to reactivate cardiac functions and circulation but our brain will be gone forever. And to say that the brain has "gone" for philosophy... Read more

Here are the corporations that control the world

global control

The idea that the few rule over the many is not new: a team of Swiss mathematicians has given a precise face and name to this 'master group' of corporations which, alone, controls 80% of the world economy. Global dominance theory? Study, not conspiracy The group from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (composed among others by Stefania Vitali and Stefano Battiston) used an analysis method often used to measure connections between websites: the ...

Nissan lower and lower: car loaded in 10 minutes.

The next electric car revolution will be as fast as the time it takes to recharge the batteries of the vehicles that are preparing to invade the world. Filling up with petrol doesn't take more than two or three minutes, while currently it takes several hours to fully charge a new generation vehicle. Nissan is only the latest among the companies that, in chronological order, have worked with the aim of progressively 'breaking down' this time period: the latest method... Read more

2012, the year of redemption for blogs: Enel has its prize ready.

NAS awards headshots

The long wave of social networks has passed: this precious communication tool has been adopted en masse by surfers all over the world, but the massive use of social platforms such as Twitter and Facebook has not swept away an 'old' form of expression on the web, which is indeed always left for dead but always remains afloat: gentlemen, the blog is not dead but lives and fights together with us. The flow of continuous updates that we can refer to over time… Read more
